Miscarriage Question

Miscarriage Question....

I have had a miscarriage before.. and with it there was a bit of cramping & all ... but is it possible to miscarriage without the cramping & pain??

I was a week & 1/2 late this past month.. then when I started.. I haven't stopped. I've been bleeding for 2 weeks now.. Normally my periods are only 3 or 4 days long.
I've also had a problem with bladder control too... for about 2 weeks now as well. I've had a cold.. and coughing or sneezing is not good! (YES THIS IS QUITE EMBARRASSING!.. 25 & have bladder control probs!)

I have a doc appt on the 15th. AprilRains

11-6 Yes I am STILL Bleeding.. and its QUITE HEAVY.. Heavier than I normally bleed anyhow..
No Im not having ANY pain what so ever.

I don't know what it is.. no I wont be missing this appt tho.. Cuz I GOTTA KNOW what the hell is going on! Cuz ITS gotta be something!

I truly appreciate all your help!

If I had some Insurance I would for sure be going in ASAP.. but I'm only on this Family Planning stuff & they only pay for ONE check up a year + BC .. which i haven't been taking..

I cant afford to go to the doc right now.. so I HAVE to wait till the 15th.. even though I wish I could go now!

11-8

When I asked the lady @ the office what it would cost me to go ahead & come in she told me to be expected for about $65 .. then if they decided to run any special tests or whatever.. Id have to pay for those too.. of course I could pay for those at a later date.. but.. still..

And yes Im still bleeding.. it hasn't lightened up any .. The bladder prob has eased up a bit.. which is a good thing..

I dont know what it is but I wish it would stop!!!
I have NEVER bled this much. Not even with the starting periods after my pregnancy. Not even when I did have a miscarriage before..

it is Bright red blood.. which Ive heard is ok.. from what I understand unless it turns to a dark colored blood then Im alright.. but I dunno.. Ill just be glad when TUESDAY gets here! SO they can tell me something!
But I do know its ALOT! Not GUSHING or anything but Its Pretty Heavy AprilRains

Reminds me

This may be a hormonal problem. And when you say you have a cold ... you may be getting an exposure to some kind of chemical that could cause both

I was well through menopause when I asked the doctor for a patch for hormone replacement instead of taking a pill. Horrors, I started bleeding profusely. Doc said he didn't know much about the patch ... just keep on. Well enough for me. I stopped & haven't taken anything or needed any hormones in the first place.

In my case I believe it caused the fibroid tumors in my uterus to start bleeding, but it was set off by adding hormones.

Now, have you been doing something that could affect your glandular system and cause the 'cold?' It could be an exposure to a chemical - look for signs your body uses to 'complain about too much of some kind of chemical

The chemical I know well, and that is a common exposure for many ... is 2-butoxyethanol. It comes on the scene looking like the flu ... and in the end, if a person gets too much exposure, it becomes Chronic Fatigue Syndrome such as CFIDS

See if you have any blood in urine; and if they take a blood test, ask if the red blood cells are ragged & beat up ... or whether too many are small sized (if you are past 4 months of 'flu symptoms')

11-15

Well went to the doc today.. he said one of two things could have happened.. I could have had an extra long period from being late or I could have had a VERY early miscarriage.. he said since I wasn't having any pain with it & everything "looks" fine & the Preg test they took today was Negative.. he didn't feel like we should go thru any extensive tests to try & figure it out... Since even if it was a miscarriage I obviously have passed everything that needed to be passed & there wouldnt be any need for a DNC & all that.... I said 3 weeks long?? and he kinda looked at me funny.. and went on to tell me he thought a UTI would be the best form of Birth Control for me.. etc.. Gave me some info on it.. told me to put my clothes on & all that...

The way he put things & said things made me feel like I did have a miscarriage & he didn't wanna just tell me that's what happened.

But Im not dying.. LOL he said if I don't stop bleeding by the end of the week to call him & he will call me in a Rx for some BCP that will make me stop bleeding.

Then if I decide to have the UTI put in to call him when I start my period again. And We would get that done..

I don't know whether I want the UTI or not... Any of you ever had one or know more about these??

No I don't believe I have been around any Chemicals that would effect me that way. At least I don't think. My Cold has gone away, thankfully. And Actually.. The Bleeding is VERY VERY light right now.. SO I do believe it is finally stopping. or working on it.

Cold is going away, and bleeding is slowing?

The chemical exposure I'm talking about is found in paint fumes, dry cleaning chemicals, plastics industry, and many, many cleaning products such as oven cleaner, 409 Cleaner, Scrubbing Bubbles. If it cleans good, suspect it. Spot shot carpet cleaner is 25% strong with 2-butoxyethanol and 5% isn't safe for home use, per a product developer.

Now, is there a new person in your life since the 'cold' started? Someone can breath it out into a room, and those vapors get into the eyes of another. It is called second hand solvent exposure.
